Ingredients

4 (8-ounce) salmon fillets

Olive oil

Salt and pepper

Directions

Coat each salmon fillet with the olive oil (just enough to make it shine, not drip) and salt and pepper.

Preheat grill to medium-high heat and place the salmon skin side up, (even if the skin has been removed) this is VERY important. Then close the lid and allow to cook about 5 to 7 minutes. Check the grill to make sure there are no flame flare-ups and the salmon is cooking evenly, and let cook another 3 to 4 minutes. You are going to let the fish cook about 90 percent on this side. After about 8 to 9 minutes the salmon should turn over easily and allow to finish another 3 to 4 minutes. Remove from grill and serve with your favorite side dishes. The entire cooking time should be about 10 to 12 minutes
